Magnetic resonance spectroscopy in patients with cerebral glial tumors

  • 1. Centro de Investigaciones Medico Quirurgicas, La Habana (Cuba)

Description

The incidence of the intracranial primitive tumors is about 1 to 12 cases for 100 000 inhabitants per year. The most frequent tumors are gliomas that include tumors like astrocytomas benign and malignant. We studied twenty nine patients who were sent to Medical Surgical Research Center to make a magnetic resonance with spectroscopy, in a period of 18 months. The histological result was obtained by biopsy or autopsy
